PP order has finish date on non-work day and no warning.

[Former Member]

HI, I have the work center and the Plant having the factory calender where only Monday to Thursday as work days.

However, when MRP run, i could see some planned orders having finish date on a Friday  ( I an doing backward schdeuling) and also when I convert this  to PP order no message was given that I have my Finish date on a Non-Working day.

I am not able to understand the issue. If i move the date to Saturday - it gives a warning message however not for friday.

Factory calender setting:  Work days only from Monday to thursday.

Plant and the work center are assigned with this calender.

What could be the reason for this.

Dear Sarvan,

1) Please check Workdays settings with factory calendar (SCAL).

2) CR01 / 02 - Check Work Center settings with Tab Capacity - Capa. header data - Standard available       capacity. What is Start and finish time u hv maintained for ur capacity category.

     e.g. - If it is  Start 07:00 - Finish 07:00, then system will consider Next day also.

3) Have u  assign this Factory Calendar at Plant level.

Now check after run the New MRP and with following settings.

2	Lead Time Scheduling and Capacity Planning

Pls revert and reward Points if it is useful.

Dear ,

Alternative solution can be make the warning messages into error .Execute Process Order Creation  or Production creation -You will recieve an yellow alarm messege (CO035).Goto OPJB-Eneter the Message Type and Categoery -Change it to Error (E) .

Meanwhile check Holiday calander setup and refresh buffer again .

Thanks

Check also your work center capacities if its open. Usually even if you define Monday-Thursday working days in your calendar if you open the capacity for friday then it will create on that day.

Go to your work center, check your capacity tab, double click then check the intervals. If you see the date falls under friday. then meaning its open and  possible to schedule an order.

Hi Knee You, I have the same situation in work center as you explained. so What should i do to get friday as non working day?

I already did the Calender Buffer.. Still have the same issue.

Hi Saravanan,

Remove any tag as working day for FRIDAY on you factory calendar. make it Monday-Thursday and also as Ive mentioned remove also the open dates that falls under friday on your workcenter capacities. This should gonna work.

Cheers!

Hi, Yes I did the factory calendar setting.

I could not still understand the work center settings that u have explained. Can you explain in a step by step procedure. Thanks in advance.

Saravanan,

The detailed step(s) depend upon what you currently have entered for intervals right now.

Please go into the affected work center as suggested by expert Knee You, and display the capacity intervals that affect your current orders.  Create a screen shot image, and insert the image here in your response.

Sarvan,

Assuming all the calendars are assigned as you say they are, you probably need to refresh the calendar buffer.  SCAL > Extras > Update calendar buffer.
